Cumulative incidence of cardiovascular events based on sex-specific quartiles of GS (a) and HGS (b). The sex-specific cut-offs for GS were < 0.82 m/s, 0.82–0.95 m/s, 0.95–1.15 m/s, and > 1.15 m/s in men, and < 0.81 m/s, 0.81–0.93 m/s, 0.93–1.11 m/s, and > 1.11 m/s in women. The sex-specific cut-offs for HGS were < 22.1 kg, 22.1–26.2 kg, 26.2–32.1 kg, and > 32.1 kg in men, and < 15.0 kg, 15.0–17.1 kg, 17.1–21.6 kg, and > 21.6 kg in women
